Forest Frederic Edward Yeo-Thomas, known by his code names "White Rabbit," "Seahorse," and "Shelley," lived a life that could rival any Hollywood spy thriller.

Beginning his journey in the Royal Air Force at the start of World War II, Yeo-Thomas quickly transitioned to the world of covert operations. His fearless exploits earned him the moniker "White Rabbit," as he seemed to move with ease and elusiveness in the most dangerous of circumstances.

In one daring escape in Russia, Yeo-Thomas strangled a guard outside his cell to break free from solitary confinement. Throughout his missions in France, he danced on the edge of capture, narrowly avoiding the clutches of the Gestapo on multiple occasions.

Even when finally captured, Yeo-Thomas remained steadfast in his loyalty to his country and fellow operatives. Enduring days of relentless interrogation, he never wavered, maintaining his cover as an RAF pilot and refusing to betray his comrades or the resistance movement he served.

Yeo-Thomas's unwavering bravery and commitment to his cause solidify his place as a true hero of espionage, his life story a testament to the resilience and courage of the human spirit.
